Abstract:

Tourism is an important means of poverty alleviation. Tourism poverty alleviation has attracted attention from foreign and domestic tourism researchers. It is of theoretical and practical significance to compare tourism poverty alleviation literature between foreign and domestic researches. By reviewing the related literature, we found that qualitative methods were mostly used in researches of tourism poverty alleviation, while the use of quantitative methods was less. With regard to this, this paper uses the method of bibliometric analysis to investigate the quantity changes/study areas/journals publishing tourism poverty alleviation papers/research methods/fundings and research themes of tourism poverty alleviation at home and abroad. Through the comparative analysis, the following conclusions are drawn. Firstly, in terms of quantity changes of literature, foreign tourism poverty alleviation researches are earlier than domestic research, although the number of domestic research literature is more than that of abroad. Secondly, both foreign and domestic research study areas are mainly in poor areas. However, as for the scale of study areas, there are some differences between foreign and domestic researches. Thirdly, most of the journals publishing tourism poverty alleviation papers both at home and abroad belong to the high quality ones. Nevertheless, there are some differences in the discipline of journals publishing tourism poverty alleviation papers. Fourthly, foreign and domestic tourism poverty alleviation researches mainly use qualitative methods. Fifthly, from the view of fundings of tourism poverty alleviation research, there are some differences in the proportion and type of fundings. Finally, as for the research theme, ecotourism and sustainable tourism are the research topics which both domestic and foreign researchers focus on. There are still some differences of the research theme between domestic and foreign researches. Based on above analysis, the future researches on poverty alleviation at home and abroad were forecasted, with the aim of promoting the research process of tourism poverty alleviation.
